PREVENTION

Message from U.S. Surgeon Message from U.S. Surgeon General’s OfficeGeneral’s Office

Leading cause of premature death and illness in the U.S. could be prevented through positive lifestyle habits. The solution to those health problems is largely WITHIN OUR CONTROL

FactsFacts 750 billion dollars/year is spent on the nation’s

healthcare U.S. spends more per capita on healthcare than

any other country. The British spend 1/3 what we do per person and outlive us by 3 years.

Of 20 countries researched, the typical American diet was highest of all in the % of fat, and lowest in dietary fiber. We are one of the fattest nations in the world.

Considering how much as a nation we spend on medical care, we should outshine the world in health and wellness, but we don’t.

make prevention a top priority
